Project description:Peatlands of the Lehstenbach catchment (Germany) house so far unidentified microorganisms with phylogenetically novel variants of the dissimilatory (bi)sulfite reductase genes dsrAB. These genes are characteristic for microorganisms that reduce sulfate, sulfite, or some organosulfonates for energy conservation, but can also be present in anaerobic syntrophs. However, nothing is currently known regarding the abundance, community dynamics, and biogeography of these dsrAB-carrying microorganisms in peatlands. To tackle these issues, soils from a Lehstenbach catchment site (Schlöppnerbrunnen II fen) from different depths were sampled at three time points over a six-year period to analyze the diversity and distribution of dsrAB-containing microorganisms by a newly developed functional gene microarray and quantitative PCR assays. Members of novel, uncultivated dsrAB lineages (approximately representing species-level groups) (i) dominated a temporally stable but spatially structured dsrAB community and (ii) represented ‘core’ members (up to 1-1.7% relative abundance) of the autochthonous microbial community in this fen. In addition, denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)- and clone library-based comparison of the dsrAB diversity in soils from a wet meadow, three bogs, and five fens of various geographic locations (distance ~1-400 km), identified one Syntrophobacter-related and nine novel dsrAB lineages to be widespread in low-sulfate peatlands. Signatures of biogeography in dsrB-DGGE data were not correlated with geographic distance but could largely be explained by soil pH and wetland type, implying that distribution of dsrAB-carrying microorganisms in wetlands on the scale of a few hundred kilometers is not limited by dispersal but determined by contemporary environmental conditions. 36 dsrAB clones for chip evaluation, 33 hybridizations of labeled dsrAB RNA from environmental peatsoil samples

Project description:Managing tradeoffs through gene regulation is believed to maintain resilience of a microbial community in a fluctuating resource environment. To investigate this hypothesis we imposed a fluctuating environment that required the sulfate-reducing generalist Desulfovibrio vulgaris to manage tradeoffs associated with repeated ecologically-relevant shifts between retaining metabolic independence (active capacity for sulfate respiration) and becoming metabolically specialized to a mutualistic association with the hydrogen consuming Methanococcus maripaludis. Strikingly, the microbial community became progressively less proficient at restoring the environmentally-relevant physiological state after each perturbation. Most cultures collapsed within 3-7 shifts with only a few collapsing later. We demonstrate that the collapse was caused by conditional gene regulation, which drove precipitous decline in intracellular abundance of essential transcripts and proteins, imposing greater energetic burden of regulation to restore function in a fluctuating environment. The microbial community collapse was rescued by a single regulatory mutation that could then potentially serve as a stepping stone for further adaptive evolution in a variable resource environment. Co-culture strains of M. maripaludis wild type and either wild type or DVU0744::Tn5 mutant of D. vulgaris strains were grown anaerobically in replicates. Samples were transitioned between syntrophic and sulfate respiratory growth conditions at early log phases.

Project description:Managing tradeoffs through gene regulation is believed to be critical for the success of a generalist in a fluctuating resource environment. To investigate this hypothesis in depth, we imposed a fluctuating environment that required a representative community of the sulfate-reducing generalist Desulfovibrio vulgaris to manage tradeoffs associated with repeated ecologically-relevant shifts between retaining metabolic independence (active capacity for sulfate respiration) and becoming metabolically specialized to a mutualistic association with the hydrogen consuming Methanococcus maripaludis. Counterintuitively, the community rapidly collapsed and went extinct because extensive gene regulation during shifts drove precipitous decline in intracellular abundance of essential transcripts and proteins. We demonstrate that extensive gene regulation can be catastrophic for a generalist when resources fluctuate rapidly, and that the extinction phenomenon can be prevented by a single regulatory mutation that could then potentially serve as a stepping stone for further adaptive evolution in a variable resource environment. Two strains were profiled at early and mid-log phase of growth during Sulfate Respiration and Syntrophy, and after transition between them. 2 biological replicates, 24 samples
